QuestionQ10

701.1 Modern Software Development

Which of the following statements are true about microservices?

Choose two
  • A Microservices limit the risk of updates and deployments because failures only affect a limited amount of functionality.
  • B Microservices allow the combination of different application development platforms within one application.
  • C Microservices complicate updates because individual microservices cannot be changed once an application is deployed.
  • D Microservices interact faster than components within a monolithic software application due to their standardized APIs.
  • E Microservices are not suitable for container deployments due to their complexity and resource consumption.
Explanation

Microservices are independently deployed services, so a failure in one service generally has a limited blast radius rather than affecting all application functionality. Each service can also be self-contained with its own dependencies and programming platform, allowing different development platforms within one application.
